More of The Same

The congressional Demorats are up to their usual BS.

“Democrat no-energy energy bill embodies the rhetoric-first, solutions-last brand of leadership that has made this Democratic Congress the most unpopular in our nation’s history. By failing to provide states with the opportunity to share in the revenues generated by offshore drilling, the bill gives governors and state legislatures no incentive whatsoever to opt-in.”

Although the bill does open up some offshore areas to drilling, it sets up a revenue sharing scheme that wouldn’t give states any incentive to participate. . . . . The bill actually forever bans drilling within 50 miles of shore and makes law the annual funding rider that was set to expire on October 1st.

Unfortunately for Americans, the expansion in offshore drilling is an expansion in name only, putting most resource-rich areas under a permanent moratorium.

So the Democrat controlled congress is up to it's usual smoke and mirrors, an energy bill that does basically nothing to help.

Last week, the House passed legislation by a 266–152 margin to restore the Second Amendment rights of the residents of D.C.

Sadly, Sen. Reid refuses to schedule a vote in the Senate. This now seems like a transparent attempt by Speaker Pelosi to protect her pro-gun Democrats going into the Congressional elections this November by passing this bill in the expectation that the Senate will not consider the bill before the end of the year. Emphasis added

So when they tire of the smoke screen, or maybe adding to it, they mix in a little evil. No wonder some call it The Evil party. I can't think of a single reason they shouldn't all be fired.
